Founding Ops

San Francisco, CA
Full-time
Visa Sponsorship

About the role

The Prompting Company is hiring Founding Ops to take the company off the founders' plates.

We're 7 people in San Francisco, post-seed, with real customers. The founders are still doing too much of recruiting, finance, legal, vendors, and internal systems. You will own that.

This is a true founding role. You will build the operating system of the company: hiring ops, finance/admin, legal/vendors, tools, office, and the glue that lets GTM and engineering move faster. There is no ops team and no playbook. You'll write it.

What you'll do

  • Run recruiting ops end to end (pipeline, scheduling, offers, onboarding)
  • Own finance and admin: billing, vendors, payroll coordination, contracts
  • Set up and keep internal tools actually working (Slack, Google, customer systems)
  • Make SF office and in-person operations work
  • Spot process holes before they become founder time sinks

You might be a fit if you've

  • Run ops, chief of staff, or founding-ops at a real startup (not campus clubs)
  • Graduated and already held a real job. This is not a first-job seat.
  • Are high-agency, detail-obsessed, and fine with incomplete information
  • Are in San Francisco or will relocate. This is not remote.
